Chilled & Ambient Pharmaceutical Storage

Background

CREST were approached by our client to deliver temperature-controlled pharmaceutical storage within their existing warehouse. Our team were able to offer a turnkey package and assumed responsibility for the panelling, refrigeration, lighting, doors and door protection.

These environments were to be utilised for the storage of temperature-critical pharmaceutical products and aid our client’s compliance for good distribution practice (GDP).

Process

Understanding the bespoke nature of critical environment builds such as this, the team completed multiple site surveys to gain a better understanding of the site conditions and to confirm minor design changes.

Project Delivery

Our specialist installation team successfully supplied and installed the pharmaceutical chiller, meeting the 2-8°C temperature specification, with adjoining ambient area (15-25°C), and utilised Kingspan’s QuadCore panel system to do so effectively. Situated underneath a mezzanine floor, the team had to carefully plan the coordination of refrigeration and HVAC equipment to accommodate.

Whilst there was good access to the site, it remained a live environment, so daily coordination meetings were arranged to minimise disruption to day-to-day operations.

However, the team are well-versed in overcoming such intricacies and worked hard to successfully deliver the project according to our client’s programme of works.
